  1. Ok so I've been collecting for a few years now. I don't really pour over general information; usually just about a specific watch I'm looking to purchase. So my question is this, with all the care most rep manufacturers have in creating an almost exact replica of a real watch how come most of the time the date in the date window is too low? From my understanding a lot of the time they are using a rep movement that is almost identical to a gen. I mean why can't they get that little detail correct? Or am I missing something?
  2. Thanks I went with the second one. Should be here next week. I think it's the same as the 3rd one you like. Andrews told me it was the latest.
  3. I've decided on the IWC Pilot Classic, just not sure which version. Any help would be appreciated. Here are the finalists, maybe they're all the same, who knows? Also thought it came in green, the two from Trusty Time says khaki. http://www.ttw8488.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30_191&products_id=14327 http://www.ttw8488.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30_191&products_id=14398 http://puretime01.com/pilot-chrono-iw388002-real-ceramic-zf-11-best-edition-on-green-nylon-strap-a7750.html http://puretime01.com/watch-brands/iwc/pilot-watch/pilot-chrono/pilot-chrono-iw388002-real-ceramic-v6f-1-1-best-edition-on-green-nylon-strap-a7750.html
  4. Yeah I don't think so either, but thought I'd ask. I would be so nice those.
  5. Thanks, but that's the Navitimer World, I already have that one. I'm looking for the Navitimer 46 which is a specific model.
  6. So i've looked all over and can't find one. I'm not sure they make one, but if anyone knows I would really like a nice rep of a Navitimer 46. I already have the standard Navitimer which is a 42 and it's beautiful, just too small for my wrist. I just bought a Super Avenger II Blacksteel. Big and beautiful. So that'll hold me over until they make one, I guess.
  7. Looks good to me. I'm not that critical of it, also not sure what to look for honestly.
  8. Will do. Thanks. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  9. thanks for the suggestions. Work is crazy won't have time to try for a few weeks. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  10. Ok so I've had my new Navitimer for half a day and I noticed that when I move my hand and then let it rest I feel the weight in the watch spinning. I feel it spinning as if it's unwinding, not just the motion of it moving as normal, but actually spinning by the spring. I tried my other watches and can't feel the same thing. As the movements are all the same I want to make sure it's working correcly. So what is the probelm and how do I fix it?
  11. I've got a SMP Ceramic and LOVE it. I'm pretty careful with it, but my favorite part of the watch the clasp has some scuff marks. Does anyone know what I can use to get the brushed finish back. I know I can try 0000 steel wool and the like, but thought I'd ask if anyone has done it before and might have some tips. Here's a pic of the scuff.
  12. I have the SMP 300 Ceramic 44mm case size and LOVE it. Here's a link to my review http://www.rwgforum.net/topic/172423-omega-seamaster-pro-ceramic-bezel-44mm/
  13. Ok this might be a stupid question but I just installed my leather band onto my Breitling Navitimer 01 and I want the leather band to form more around my wrist. It's basically too stiff and doesn't make a nice circle. Is this something that will form by wearing it or is there some technique to help it along?
